Twice in a week ive had dozy young women wearing headphones step into the road in front of me without looking. First time there was a collision although I'd managed to scrub almost all my speed off so just a light touch - enough to make her jump and scream like it was my fault though.
This morning I was halfway through a righthand turn, on wet tramrails, when the dozy moo stepped out from a pedestrian refuge still looking to her right at the two cars that had already gone through.
Braking, then sliding on wet steel rails with zero control really isn't fun - proper brown trouser moment. How I managed to avoid hitting her I'll never know!
